    Spruce up any boring, old salad with this fabulous salad dressing.

    Spruce up any boring, old salad with this fabulous salad dressing.

    If you are a long-time reader you would know by now I’m not that keen on salad. My first question would be:

    “What’s in it?”

    Because heaven forbid if it’s just lettuce with a few slices of cucumber I’ll just twirl around and keel over on the spot.

    Second question:

    “Is there a dressing to go with the salad?”

    What I really want to hear is that there is one and that it’s Honey & Mustard because it’s my favourite. I am yet to meet someone who doesn’t like it!

    The great thing about this salad dressing is that you can easily multiply the ingredients, i.e. make a big batch, pour it into a glass bottle with a screw top (an old ketchup bottle would do!) and stick it in the fridge. Meals can then be made in a jiffy; shredded lettuce, tomato slices, leftover roast chicken, a boiled egg if you like and voila! Once I even made potato salad but thought mayonnaise would make it too heavy and used this dressing instead and let me tell you it was divine!

      Ooooh, loving the idea of this in a potato salad. Not a big fan of the mayo heavy versions (with the exception of homemade mayo that is).

      I prefer American dressing, but it’s hard to get and the manufactured dressings just taste eww.
      But I’ll definitely give yours a try. 🙂 … When I’m eating salad next time, that is. Because I’m not keen on it either and I actually prefer if there is less lettuce in it and more other stuff, like mushrooms, corn, cucumber, bell pepper and so on. ^^

      Nothing sets off a salad like a good homemade dressing. Looks absolutely fantastic. Beautiful photos!

      I’m totally with you. I think Homer Simpson spoke for all of us when he said “You don’t make friends with salad”. Will have to give this dressing a try.

      This is the best 5 minutes Honey and Mustard salad dressing I have ever tasted. I have tried it tonight on a green salad, my next shot will be to use it on a hot chicken salad. I can almost see it! Yummy.

        Thanks for the positive feedback, Richard! This Honey and Mustard dressing will work with almost anything. My favourite way of using it with pan fried salmon on top of buttered egg noodles. Just sprinkle the sauce over or stir it all in!

      Has anyone added poppyseeds to this recipe? If so, how many? My favorite honey-mustard dressing is from Red Robin and it has poppyseeds in it. I can buy some at Red Robin but homemade would probably be better.

      A very beautiful dressing. Love the way you placed the egg. Thank you for making me drooling.
